From our partners at Oregon Symphony:The Oregon Symphony brings you Cirque de la Symphonie for the Holidays November 27 7:30pm and November 28 2:00pmTickets: 503-228-1353 | http://www.orsymphony.org

The Schnitz will take on a decidedly three-ring aura as the always awe-inspiring sound of the Oregon Symphony is enhanced with equally thrilling visuals supplied by a troupe of world-class circus performers. Except for the missing elephants and tigers (absent for obvious reasons), the show includes virtually everything one might expect to find at a circus: aerialists, acrobats, contortionists, dancers, jugglers and strongmen – all performing live in front of, and above, the orchestra, to a myriad of traditional holiday favorites. There'll be more than a little humor and magic.

It’ll be a wonderful treat for the whole family on Thanksgiving weekend.

I cannot say I am more deserving them someone else because that is not fair to others. But I can say I will enjoy it immensly. These performers are sooo beautiful to the eye. I saw a cirque de solay show some years back when I was with my old boyfriend. It was just beautiful really so breathtaking how very very pretty it was. November 28th is my birthday I have no plans and it would really make my birthday. Roxanne Traviss.

My wife and I are new to Portland as of May and have been looking forward to an awesome reason to go to the Scnhitz. We’re going to be away from family for Thanksgiving (a good thing in my book :-/) and I’d love to have something special to take us to.

I would like to win these tickets so I can take my wife to this show. It was her birthday at the beginning of the month and I was unable to get her anything really nice. It is also our two year wedding anniversary next month and I would really really like to suprise her.

Reason I would like to attend is because I have never been to either a symphony performance or Cirque de aerialist performance-tickets are just too much for my family to afford. It would be an Awesome treat. Thanks!

This would be a unique experience and I’m all up for that. I know my girl would enjoy being taken to an event like this. The Oregon Symphony is actually quite astonishing on it’s own but this would just be amazing.

My elderly Mom, all 94 years-old of her, would love it! But if she’s not feeling well that day, my 24-year-old daughter would love it, too. What the heck, if I win I’ll go ahead and buy a ticket and bring both of them!

As a new transplant to Portland, its my first holiday season away from my family, and with my girlfriend in my new city. To lack eloquence, this show seems like it would be an awesome experience, and combines all the elements of an amazing show. Moving across country drained my pockets (and bank) and can not otherwise afford to attend.

Would really live to gift my Scroogey man a night at the Symphony. He loves the symphony, we govas often as we can… So soothing. He deserves it so much after all he’s been through this year. And since I’m still looking for work after 6 months, it would be a gift I can’t afford this year.

My daughter is at the age now where she can appreciate this kind of show. She is in love with music, dance and theater and I know this would make her evening with momma an amazing memory. Thank you for the opportunity. It is an amazing giveaway.

Wow, what an amazing show! I have always loved the Oregon Symphony but have not been to a show for quite some time. This would be a wonderful event for the holidays and a romantic date night surprise for my husband!

My husband and I have been trying to participate in different kinds of activities, and a live show of any kind has forever been on our list. The show looks like it would be a really great show to start off the holiday season! Maybe if we went and it was a blast, I could convince him to take us to the Nutcracker ballet that I have wished for since we first met.

My only Turkey Day plans to this point include 90 minute bootcamp at 24 Hour Fitness in the morning, and hanging out with my Buddhist Vegan friend (while fantasizing about what food I can stuff in my face after we give thanks and eat rabbit food together). Circus and Symphony would be food for the soul. Nothing more delicious than that!

My husband and I have always wanted to go to a Cirque show, but we have to travel to go to shows, which puts them a little out of our range. Tickets would make us able to take the trip! We would love to finally get to see a show!

I would love to go & take my mother from out of town! This would be a special treat for both of us. Neither one of us have been to a symphony. She is from a real small town & nothing like that is offered there! It would be greatly appreciated!!

This sounds like a beautiful live performance to experience both visually and audibly. I attended a Cirque show when it was here in Portland this summer and it was truly amazing! The live music from the symphony combined with aerobatics would be a show that one wouldn’t soon forget! And what a treat for Thanksgiving to help kick off the coming Christmas season.

It has been a dream of mine to see a Cirque show. As a visual artist, I am intrigued by the shapes and movement in their performances (what I’ve seen in clips). I am not able to work due to a disability so I don’t have money to buy tickets, and would really appreciate the opportunity to see this show. Thank you for your consideration, and happy holidays to you!

It would be Absolutly Wonderful To take my 14yr old Son to this….He would be Soooooooo Thrilled To See This Performance as well would I!!!! He is very musically acomplished…Loves going to the Schintz…and was not able to go to cirque de sol la when they where here in the summer. This would be an amazing start to the holiday season!!

I recently installed a tightrope in my studio in order to become a more balanced person. A year ago I still haven’t made an honest crossing. I want to see how the masters do it, set to the backdrop of our exquisite orchestra.

I’ve got a good feeling that seeing this performance would a) help me create an amazing painting once back in my studio b) provide me some brownie points (big time!) with my wife if I brought home tickets c) aid in making my fall much more festive. It would be a trifecta that would only lead to amazing things.

The showing of Psycho with the Oregon Symphony was my first time I had the pleasure to attend the Symphony. I was shocked when my husband actually wanted to go. He never has been interested in anything but ROCK! We both loved it and can only dream of being able to afford to attend again. We would be honored to accept tickets and be forever great full for the opportunity to expand our music genre.

wow! Cirque and symphony of wonder-lust….I like that you guys are giving tickets away and I truly feel that my 3 children would be filled with amazement and delight. a true smile on my face to expose them to fun!

My boyfriend and I talk about going to see the Oregon Symphony quite a lot. We are BIG classical music and art fans… but have never been because he is a student and I always seem to be struggling with finances (currently unemployed.) I moved to Las Vegas for a year not too long ago and was so in love with the idea of seeing a cirque de soleil show, but again was not able to go due to finances. Free sounds great to us! We have our fingers crossed!

My granddaughters love music, dance, and gymnastics. I want so much to take them to this show, but there’s no way I can afford tickets for all 3 of us to go. If I could win a pair of tickets, I could make them so happy!

It’s not my birthday, I don’t have a 94-year-old mother or any musically accomplished kids I’d like to take to this, so I probably don’t deserve it as much as some other people. However, I would not take the experience for granted and I would dearly, dearly love to see this show.

I love Cirque and would thoroughly enjoy taking my step-son(ex’s) to the show. I am a partially disabled college student living on a VERY fixed income and moved back to Portland so I had more exposure and access to the arts and could share that with my kids.

I would LOVE to win tickets to this! To be honest I would want to win this not for me but for my mom, who I know would adore this show, she can’t afford to get tickets and I can’t afford to get her tickets either. So if I were to get these, I am positive it would make her Christmas season!!!! Thanks.

Hi, I would LOVE tickets for my boyfriend and I to see this show! We want to go because we love symphonies and thought this sounded really awesome as soon as we heard about it. With school and the holidays its not in my budget right now but I would really really love to go! Thanks!

Winning these tickets for Jeremy would be something special. After his ex who kidnapped his son five years ago, there isn’t much that makes him smile anymore. Maybe this would be a gift that could lift his spirits for the holidays. Thanks for the offer and consideration. Good luck everyone!:-)

I would love to go to this with my husband. We will finally be reunited after a year. He’s been away for the military and will be home for the Thanksgiving holiday. What an awesome treat this would be for us to experience together.

We would love to go see the Oregon symphony and Cirque perform together. What a grand combination! We have always supported the arts in the past but due to unemployment have been unable to support them now. This would truly be a treat if we were picked! Thanks for chance….

My boyfriend & I just moved to OR about 2 months ago. I used to live in Forest Grove, OR while I was attending Pacific University, but this is his first time living in OR (he’s lived in Seattle all his life). I think this would be a fun event for us to attend & it will give me a great opportunity to show him the city during the holidays!

With 3 kids under the age of 6….. I NEED a date with my hubby!!! The arts have been a connective interest of ours, I would love to reconnect with him using art which is a valued luxury and important outlet in our busy lives.

I’m typically an absolute scrooge about the holidays, but I’m convinced Cirque could even make my holidays great. Cirque tickets on PDX Pipeline, well that might very well turn me into an elfÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦ and that would be something to see!!

On August 3, 2011 my spouse and I were in a horribly tragic accident which has severely compromised my financial situation and would make it impossible for me to purchase a ticket to this event. While riding bicycles on a country road in Washington County we were both struck by a truck traveling at a high rate of speed. My spouse was killed at the scene, and while I sustained life threatening injuries both myself and our unborn child survived the accident. I am now 24 weeks pregnant with a baby girl and would like very much to go to the symphony. They say that classical music is wonderful for unborn babies and at this stage of the pregnancy I have read that her hearing is fully developed. I would like to bring my spouse’s brother with me to this event to thank him for the tremendous amount of support that he has provided for throughout this most difficult time.
